Question

What is an additive inverse? (Explain it from your own way.)​

Answer 1

Answer:

The additive inverse of a number is what you add to a number to create the sum of zero.

The additive inverse of x is equal and opposite in sign to it (so, y = -x or vice versa).

For example, the additive inverse of the positive number 5 is -5.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, the additive inverse of a number a is the number that, when added to a, yields zero. This number is also known as the opposite (number), sign change, and negation.

FOR EXAMPLE

The additive inverse of 2 is (-2).

When add 2 and (-2) is equal to zero.
